Poređenje ishoda lečenja pacijenata podvrgnutih TUR sa pacijentima lečenim BCG imunoterapijom nakon TUR -preliminarni rezutati

Karcinom mokraćne bešike predstavlja načešći malignitet urinarnog trakta. Primarni standardni tretman tumora mokraćne bešike je transuretralna resekcija (TUR), ali procenat recidiva kod pacijenata tretiranih samo TUR-om je do 70%, a procenat progresije tumora tj, invazije u mišićni sloj je oko 30%, a to su pacijenti kojima je indikovano radikalno operativno lečenje. Intravezikalna instalacija bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) nakon TUR tumora mokraćne bešike predstavlja dokazano najefikasnije pomoćno sredstvo u lečenju i profilaksi površinskih karcinoma mokraćne bešike. Cilj našeg rada je poređenje ishoda lečenja pacijenata podvrgnutih TUR sa pacijentima lečenim kombinovanom terapijom koja obuhvata sprovođenje imunoterapije intravezikalnom instalacijom BCG nakon TUR. Rezltati prikazani u radu predstavljaju izvod rezultata prospektivno-retrospektivne studije koja se od januara 2013. godine sprovodi na odeljenju Urologije KBC Zemun.

Komparativna analiza položaja fiziološkog mirovanja mandibule kod jednojajčanih blizanaca

Jednojajčani blizanci su multidisciplinarni fenomen, čudo fetalne biologije, medicinski reproduktivni izazov, najbliža i najtrajnija biološka veza. Cilj istraživanja je komaparativna analiza fiziološkog mirovanja mandibule kod jednojajčanih blizanaca. Ovo longitudinalno oralno-epidemiološko istraživanje, izvršeno je na randomizovanom uzorku od 30 parova jednojajčanih blizanaca, podjednake polne zastupljenosti i hronološke starosne dobi od 20 do 40 godina. Na osnovu statističkih parametara vrednovan je položaj fiziološkog mirovanja i obavljena komparativna analiza, odnosno određen stepen intraparske sličnosti i razlika, među članovima istog para i određen stepen interparske sličnosti i razlika, kod članova različitih parova monozigotnih blizanaca. Vrednovanjem poređenja položaja fiziološkog mirovanja,kod jdnojajčanih blizanaca, t-testom nije utvrđena statistički značajna razlika za fiziološko mirovanje, u predelu prednjih zuba. Konkordantnost odnosno usaglašenost konačnih ioshoda je dokazana među članovima istog i različitih parova. Razlika nije uočena, ni odnosu na pol. Komparacijom vrednosti položaja fiziološkog mirovanja, nije utvrđena statistički značajna intraparska ni interparska razlika, među članovima istih i različitih MZ blizanačkih parova.

Investigation of motivation for providing support to children with malignant diseases

Hair loss in children hospitalized for malignant diseases treatment is most visible manifestation that dramatically influences their later selfconfidence. Further, this could strongly affect possible development of psychic crisis. Scientific researches on motivational aspects of involvement for provision of non-formal categories of support to patients with malignant diseases are infrequent. Therefore, this topic should be more investigated in future. Humanitarian initiative “Kilometer of hair”, as unique philanthropic activity at territory of Serbia in year 2015, had as an aim to collect hair for preparation of wigs for children treated for malignant diseases. The main question in our study was definition of key motives for hair donation. We classified three main groups of motives. Altruism was detected as motivation in almost one-half of all interviewed subjects. Second group included almost one third of all subjects and their main motivation for hair donation was empathy. The smallest percentage of hair donors was motivated with some kind of public approval and welcome from society. We believe that further research in this area could give some directives for program planning of further improvement of social awareness for psychosocial support to children with malignant diseases.

Analysis Identification of Victims of Mass Catastrophe in Forensic Dentistry

Natural disaster, such as earthquakes, fires and volcanic eruptions, airline and railway accidents and shipwrecks, as a rule, are very rare, but they always have human victims. Wars are also a form of mass killings of people, but the identification of war victims requires more complex procedures. The most reliable and certain methods used for identification are fingerprints, dental analysis and DNA analysis. Secondary means of identification include a personal description, medical findings, as well as evidence and clothing found on the body. The largest contribution to the identification of the bodies was given by dentists who tried to identify victims with the teeth. Dental identification is an essential procedure that is conducted either independently or as supplement identification. Dentition in process of identifying the victims is used to compare AM (ante-mortem) and PM (post mortem) anthropological characteristics and dental procedures. Today dental identification is unavoidable process, because of its simplicity and because of the speed and economy.

Antiseptics and disinfectants in health care institutions: modern principles of application

Skin antisepsis prior to invasive procedures, hand hygiene performed by health care workers, sterilization and disinfection of medical devices and environmental surfaces are the most important measures used to control nosocomial infections. Hand hygiene is the cheapest and most effective measure. Hand rubbing with an alcohol-based hand rub is recommended for the routine decontamination of hands. Hand washing with soap and water should be employed when hands are visibly soiled, and when exposure to Clostridium difficile infection is suspected or proven. Most alcohol based hand rubs are based on isopropanol, ethanol or npropanol. The WHO published guidance recommend 20–30 seconds for routine hand rubbing. There are no recommendations stating that antimicrobial soaps are more effective than plain soaps. It is recommended to use alcohol-containing preparatory agents for skin preparation prior surgery, injections, incisions and punctures. Neutral pH detergent solutions are commonly used for cleaning equipment and instruments. Data did not clearly demonstrate that enzymatic cleaners are more effective than non-enzymatic cleaners. High level disinfection is safe procedure only if adequate products are properly used. There are no any special products for multidrug resistant bacteria.
